[ Humbug *General* list - semi-serious discussions about Humbug and  ]
[ Unix-related topics.  Please observe the list's charter.           ]
[ Worthwhile understanding: http://www.humbug.org.au/netiquette.html ]

First let me apologise to the admin...he will get several bounces of
messages from me because of a problem I have only just noticed.


Some e-mails I have sent to the list have gone missing and I have only just
realised what the reason is...I only have a problem with this list.

At home I usually use Windows to access the internet (because of particular
programmes and features I require that are not available in Linux). When I
am logged in externally or from ISP's other than UQ I access my e-mail using
the UQ telnet loggin and Pine.

I have been trying to send messages to the general at humbug.org.au recently
but they have gone missing.

I have just realised that, unbeknowns to me, my Pine cofiguration at UQ has
been changed. My previous configuration was for an email name of
fbrand at uq.net.au . I now find that it has been reset by UQ to
zzfbrand at uqconnect.net, which is not my e-mail address. Humbug refuses the
zzfbrand at uqconnect.net address I suspect!

So if you are losing some messages through UQ Pine, check this out.
